This is jstcommentary.blogspot.com 2.0

I am technologically illiterate and cannot sign back in to my original blog jstcommentary.blogspot.com 

I am forced to start a new blog josephsmith22.blogspot.com. 

Josephsmith2 was taken? I will have to check that site out.

I keep finding things in the Book of Mormon that the modern LDS church does not adhere to.

The old ones I have previously mention (although I am nearing 60 and semi-demented) so maybe I have not.


1. Polygamy is denounced in the book of Jacob.

2. Wine is required by JESUS to be used for the sacrament.

3. Priesthood offices are Priests and Teachers with one person at a time acting as High Priest.

4. Little children does not mean infants. Parents are required according to Mormon's letter to Moroni to repent and be baptized. I do not know of many 8 year old that are parents.

5. One temple at a time.

6. No mention of weird Masonic rituals in the book containing the fullness of the Gospel.

7. Prophets actually talk to JESUS.

8. Apostles must have JESUS lay his hands on them.

9. JESUS must personally approve persons who are authorized to baptize.

10. The sin next to murder is not immorality. It is leading people away from CHRIST.

11. Missionaries who fornicate are not sent home forever, but sent right back out in order to make restitution for their bad behavior.

12. The Spirit dictates what happens in a church meeting not the Bishop.

13. Rebaptism is OK.

14. War is only allowed if approved by GOD as a means of self-defense.

15. It is better to give your own life, rather than to take one.

16. JESUS' Church is called the Church of Christ.

17. Killing someone can be approved by the Holy Spirit. I would be very careful with this one.

18. The goal of this life is to have an actual in-person relationship with JESUS.

Earthquake in New York is a Warning

 I live in California and earthquakes are just part of the experience here. New York is different. What if the recent 4.8 earthquake in New York is a warning from GOD? My best guess (and this is the guess of a sinner) is that New York has had time to decide what to do about abortion since the Supreme Court overturned Roe V Wade. You can currently get an abortion in New York for any reason in the first 24 week period. GOD might be against abortion for any time period or any reason. Certainly 24 weeks seems excessive by any standard of common sense. If GOD mandated an earthquake in California, another home of infanticide, no one would think anything happened out of the ordinary. Have an earthquake in the Empire state (empire of secret murder) and you might get a few people wondering what is going on. I am a firm believer in targeted strikes by the Almighty. Everything from the  angel Moroni falling off  temples, to unusual weather, to Lincoln being shot by John Wilkes Booth...

France to be Destroyed

  I am sure you are aware the France has become the first sovereign state in the history of the world to make abortion a constitutional right. It makes sense, this is same country that basically laid down for Hitler at the start of WWII. The French are consistently foolish and cowardly. Based on the Lehite cities in the Book of Mormon, I predict (not prophesy) that France will one day soon be destroyed. Why? "The blood of the saints" (aborted children) cries from the ground to the GOD of this Earth, Jesus Christ. I have a strong feeling He has had enough of listening to the distress calls of people whose second estate has been horrifically terminated before it began. When the day of mercy runs out, the day of justice begins. Will it start with France? The US is not going to fare much better, but at least we have not as yet made abortion a constitutional right. If that does happen, you may want to move to El Salvador, Nicaragua, Honduras, Madagascar, or the Dominican Republic....

17 Million Mormons?

Dr. Ryan Cragun has done some excellent research on the decline of religion generally (secularization). He grew up LDS in beautiful Morgan, Utah (up Ogden Canyon), served a mission to Costa Rica in the 1990s, and then left the church in 2004. His latest work turned up the fact that Utah is no longer a majority Mormon state. The LDS church via its media holdings in Utah would like you to believe that 60 percent of the state is still Mormon. They are just not allowed to utter the word "Mormon" for fear of spontaneously combusting, or at the very least going to Hell at some future date (despite the fact the founding scripture of the institution has "Mormon" in the title). Perhaps the church will rename the book, The Book of Nephi, which would be great since it was actually Nephi that appeared to Joseph Smith all those years ago. Cragun's research indicates with a 99.9 percent confidence interval (most studies only use 90-95 percent) that 38-46 percent of the popula...
